Santa Claus Pictures II

This is a very popular design, although Santa's eyes are usually black and most families don't have the birth date on there.

This Santa was apparently very popular as well.

This customer asked me to recreate three wool Santa stockings from her family's collection. The customer wanted to embellish them herself to add details.

This cheerful Santa Claus picture is from a pattern provided by the customer.

Here, Santa is combined with a decorated tree and a fanciful reindeer. I love the rich Victorian shades in this wool yarn.

This Santa Claus picture is small enough to repeat on each side, as can be seen here. This is a wonderful color variation on a very old pattern.

The small Santa can also be centered. These stockings were knit smaller than usual at the customer's request, but the pattern is an old classic that has appeared in many variations.

Santa faces are just as popular as full figures. This simple design is very effective.
